About Detectronic
Detectronic is a family-owned Danish manufacturer of industrial metal detection systems, designed and built in Støvring, Denmark since 1986. Development, stainless fabrication, testing and service sit in one factory — not assembled from imported modules.
More than 30,000 detectors are installed in over 100 countries. Around 95% of production is exported through a long-standing distributor network. Track Int’l Trade is Detectronic’s distributor in Egypt: specification, supply, installation support and local follow-up for food and industrial plants.

How metal detection helps factories
Protect the product
Ferrous, non-ferrous and stainless fragments from blades, sieves, bolts and packaging can enter a line at any stage. A detector finds them before the product ships — which is what food-safety schemes such as HACCP, BRCGS, IFS and FSSC actually require you to prove.
Protect the machine
Outside food, the economics are often simpler. One bolt in an extruder screw, granulator or chipper can cost more than the detector. Plastics, recycling, wood and textile lines typically install detection immediately before the machine they cannot afford to stop.
Keep the line running
Reject only the contaminated portion, with low false rejects. Detectronic’s control unit can be swapped in under three minutes if an electrical fault occurs, so a shift does not wait on a board-level repair. Calibration and audit records travel with the machine.
Match the detector to how the product moves
| If the product… | You need | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| Sits on a belt | Tunnel detector, with or without conveyor | Trays, bags, cartons, cuts, bread, ready meals |
| Is pumped through a pipe | Pipeline detector | Emulsion, mince, dairy, sauces, wet pet food |
| Falls freely | Free-fall detector | Flour, sugar, spices, granules, powders |
| Also needs weight control | Checkweigher or combination system | Packed goods checked for weight and metal together |
| Is washed down hard every day | WET DETECT (IP68 / IP69K) | Meat, poultry, seafood and other wet halls |
| Needs a custom belt or reject | Incline, conveyors & custom | Incline belts, retracting reject, line-specific frames |
